#macromondays #bookmark
When we nowadays hear or read the word bookmark, we usually think of it in relation with an Browser on our computers and mobilephones for our visit in the world wide web. But there used to be a time when this word was standing for use only for books. And this is how our tiny little helpers still use it in their little world. A nice Dragon brass bookmark is a great place for my tiny friend to sit down, relax and read for a little while. :)

The piano is an acoustic, stringed musical instrument invented in Italy by Bartolomeo Cristofori around the year 1700 (the exact year is uncertain), in which the strings are struck by wooden hammers that are coated with a softer material (modern hammers are covered with dense wool felt; some early pianos used leather). It is played using a keyboard, which is a row of keys (small levers) that the performer presses down or strikes with the fingers and thumbs of both hands to cause the hammers to strike the strings.
Most modern pianos have a row of 88 black and white keys, 52 white keys for the notes of the C major scale (C, D, E, F, G, A and B) and 36 shorter black keys, which are raised above the white keys, and set further back on the keyboard. This means that the piano can play 88 different pitches (or "notes"), spanning a range of a bit over seven octaves
Also the King of Pop named Michael Jackson used the piano within his famous #earthsong !

#macromondays #music
A Güiro is an music instrument used in traditional Puerto Rican music. It is a notched hollowed-out gourd, which produces music by dragging a wooden stick-like object, commonly known as a scrapper, or more formally called a “pua,” on the rigids on the outside of the Güiro. It is a Idiophone, can be made from wood, gourd, metal, plastic or fiberglass.
The guiro is believed to have originated in Puerto Rico with the Taíno people, the indigenous peoples of the Caribbean in the 16th century and beyond. The earliest recorded reference to the instrument was in 1788, by a monk and Puerto Rico historian called Fray Íñigo Abbad y Lasierra.
This carved wooden frog güiro is made in mexico. I brought it back from holidays quite back a while. Run the provided stick along the ridges on its back from rear to front to make it croak, or hit it on the head to make a 'pock' sound.

Song: "Violin" by Kate Bush, Album: "Never For Ever", 1980, YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8y5GthjgSU
A very old song, it's not even a favourite (Kate Bush) song of mine, but it was on my mind all of a sudden when I tried to chose a song to use for the theme. Haven't listened to either "Violin" or the album in many years [It sounds a little dated now, especially the guitars ;-)] nor have I played my violin in a while, but should take it up again. If I did, it would sound a lot like the song's intro at first ;-).
I shot my violin with aluminium foil as background [it works :-)!]. I like the idea that, instead of the bow, this ice skating couple dances across the strings and creates the sound.
Didn't do much editing here except to brighten it a little and accentuate the structures in Nik's Viveza and add a canvas texture in ON1.
A Happy Macro Monday everyone!
When i first thought about this weeks theme i stumbled over my passion over the last 12 months - which is chocolate. So i decided to take a photograph about chocolate according to this happy Song called "Chocolate (choco choco)" ! I want to send out some joy and happiness in these days.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWy1w7WXeq0
Lots of people say that chocolate is healthy..so here are 7 benefits of chocolate:
1. Very Nutritious
2. Powerful Source of Antioxidants
3. May Improve Blood Flow and Lower Blood Pressure
4. Raises HDL and Protects LDL From Oxidation
5. May Reduce Heart Disease Risk
6. May Protect Your Skin From the Sun
7. Could Improve Brain Function
last but not least...it let`s you feel sexy :)
So why not give it a try :)

#macromondays #slicesoffood
I decided to do a mix Up of Food & Fun for the upcoming Macro Mondays Challenge. My tiny sportsmen are huge fans of wintersports. Cause of the lockdown they had to find alternative indoor solutions to keep up their practice. Look what they found for skiing - some slices of cheese. :)

#macromondays #circles
Love is the elemental thing in human life. It describes a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person. A feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend.
Very often we express our feelings to someone else in sharing circles of love. Compared with words like:" Wanna marry me?"
Even in little world the tiny little people fall in love and share their circles of love :)

#macromondays #holes
A hole is an opening in or through a particular medium, usually a solid body. Holes occur through natural and artificial processes, and may be useful for various purposes, or may represent a problem needing to be addressed in many fields of engineering. Depending on the material and the placement, a hole may be an indentation in a surface (such as a hole in the ground), or may pass completely through that surface (such as a hole created by a hole puncher in a piece of paper). In engineering, a hole may be blind or through if it is partial or complete depth.
Sometimes it`s the simple and small things in life that count. So why not give it a try to a real small hole - that`s what i thiought. Here we go - my contribution for this weeks theme.

Even in 2023, the flowers in little world must be cared for and cherished. Just as people need to go to the hairdresser, the flowers need to be cut from time to time. Of course, this is once again a job for the little helpers. I am sure that they will support me actively also in 2023.

#macromondays #wrapping
For the great upcoming theme called #wrapping i decided to create more than just one attempt.
What do you think about this shot ? Even if i choosed another image on last monday, i thought i share this one with you too!
After i shared last time all my sadness i give it a try to send some positive lovely vibrations out there.
Where there is light, there is hope. At this time of the year everybody should have a love fullfilled heart and try to be a better person.
Gift wrapping is the act of enclosing a gift in some sort of material. Wrapping paper is a kind of paper designed for gift wrapping. An alternative to gift wrapping is using a gift box or bag. A wrapped or boxed gift may be held closed with ribbon and topped with a decorative bow (an ornamental knot made of ribbon).
The use of wrapping paper is first documented in ancient China, where paper was invented in 2nd century BC. In the Southern Song dynasty, monetary gifts were wrapped with paper, forming an envelope known as a chih pao. The wrapped gifts were distributed by the Chinese court to government officials. In the Chinese text Thien Kung Khai Wu, Sung Ying-Hsing states that the coarsest wrapping paper is manufactured with rice straws and bamboo fiber.

My tiny little helpers from little world gave me once more a helping hand. They did the presets for my last manual focus shooting. :)

Die kleinen Helferlein aus little world haben mir ein weiteres Male geholfen. Diesesmal stellten Sie für mich die Blende an einer MF Linse ein. :)

#macromondays #soap
This week the tiny little helpers got off from work! After all the hard work of the last couple weeks they booked some wellness days to refresh a bit. Within the Spa there was a good smelling soap donut and some soap hearts which could be used as well - i guess they had a great time :)

Wearing sneakers is elementary when we do sports. But you got to make sure that the shoestrings are prepared correctly so you will have an good foothold. That brings us once more to my little tiny helpers. There is no single day where they do not offer their Support :)

Even an Superhero like Spiderman needs from time to time a break from all the crime in little world! All that crime can be exhausting! So why not give him a smooth coffee break with an donut while he can check all the breaking news on his mobilephone?
